Ольга Воронец - Моя красотка - текст песни, слова, перевод, видео

My beauty lives

In a high chamber,

And in the tower that tall one

No one is welcome.

I know the beauty

There is a watchman at the porch,

But he won't block

Way to go well done.

I'll go into my sweetheart's mansion

And I will throw myself at her feet...

If only it were night

It's darker today!

Then dashing horses

They will rush us off into the distance of the fields,

Away from the chase

Away from people.

And my dear and I will live,

Without knowing dark days...

If only it were night

It's darker today!

And there with my son or daughter

Life will become more fun.

If only it were night

It's darker today!

If only it were night

Yes, the night is darker

There would only be three

Let's get a little more playful!

Ships came into our harbor. Vol. 5. M., Strekoza, 2001.

The song is based on the poem by Sergei Fedorovich Ryskin (1859-1895) “Udalets” (1882) (see at the end of the page). One of the traditional songs of the "gypsy" repertoire. It is often published with the signature of the gypsy guitarist and composer of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Mikhail Dmitrievich Shishkin (as an editor or as the author of words or music) - apparently, it was Shishkin who remade Ryskin’s text into a gypsy romance.

Usually only four verses are sung - only how the hero intends to steal the girl, without thinking about a further happy life and, moreover, without describing the murder of his former spouse. Here is the usual gypsy version:

Otrada

Ancient camp song, arr. M. Shishkina

My joy lives on

In a high chamber,

And in the tower that tall one

No one is welcome.

I know the beauty

There is a watchman at the porch,

But he won't block

Well done roads.

I'll go into my sweetheart's mansion

And I will throw myself at her feet!

If only it were night

It's darker today.

If only it were night

Yes, the night is darker

There would only be three

Yes, the three are more playful!

ORIGINAL POEM

Daredevil

S. Ryskin

My sweetheart lives in a high chamber;

No one can enter this high tower;

But I am an unexpected guest - only night will come -

Don’t be averse to welcoming the desired one into the bright room!..

I will go and visit her without an invisibility hat!..

If only the night was darker today!..

At the mansion, I know, there is a watchman at the porch,

But he will not stop the daredevil:

I'll have short shrift with him -

He won’t say a word after tasting the flail!…

Eh, my flail is more terrible than ten flails!..

If only the night was darker today!..

Then I will boldly and quickly enter the porch;

An iron ring clangs at the door;

And he will come out to meet me, both frail and gray-haired,

The hateful husband of a sweetheart, a young beauty,

And he will not block the road to her!..

If only the night was darker today!..

Then the dashing head will come to the desired one,

He will say: be healthy, beautiful widow!..

Run with me quickly, run, my beauty,

From the tower-dungeon to the dense forests!..

Let's run - my three dashing horses are ready!..

If only the night was darker today!..

Just before dawn the fog clears,

The ataman will rush to his comrades with the desired one;

And then there will be a feast in the dense forest,

And the daredevil will take beauty as his wife;

He will say: you won’t see dark days with me!..

If only the night was darker today!..
